Dave Makowski – the tribe has spoken

you have the honor of being the first persone EVER kicked off of the Dorko’s Survivor Island!!  Don’t think of it as “No One Likes You” . . . think of it as “You are a Feared Competitor!”

How do you keep from being tossed off of the Island?  it’s difficult.  you need to show up and sign in some time between 6:30 and 11pm on Saturday Night.  no need to purchase anything.  just be there in person and sign your name.  on second thought, it’s so simple a caveman could do it.

Dorko’s Survivor got off to a slow start in week #1, but this past Saturday was a fine showing with a thrilling Immunity Challenge!  So, I’ve decided to merge week one and two. 

• Anyone who showed up during either week has a check mark and NO Strikes against them!  You’ve got a Clean Slate!
• Anyone who missed BOTH weeks has ONE STRIKE

BUT WAIT – I WANT TO PLAY.  IS IT TOO LATE?!?!?

You can join in on the fun starting this week, but any new players will already have ONE STRIKE against them.  (a strike is like when you don’t show up and sign the paper that night.  Three Strikes and you’re automatically out)

Week Two – IMMUNITY CHALLENGE

At 9 o’clock we ran the second Immunity Challenge.  In Week 1 Larry beat Skrully in the Connect Four Finals.  This week we shifted gears and had a . . . .

Tin Can Alley Contest

With 6 nerf bullets loaded into the clip, each contestant had six chances to knock a tin (ok, empty aluminum beer) can over.  the sharpshooter in everyone came out!

we started with a beautiful even 8 man bracket, and had to turn away several would be contestants who came after the fun started.  we’re kicking off the Immunity Challenges at 9, so whether you need immunity, or just want to join in on the fun, now you know.

the challenges are double elimination events!  so, when Ray and Lori met the first time, the loser of that match moved into the one-loss bracket. 

some players took to the event and really shined.  several times players were forced to move back a foot because they both knocked over the same number of cans.  Aaron, Lori, Sammy, and Ray really had their game on!!  the matches they had were intense, and a lot of fun!  Aaron needed a run of five straight hits to catch up during one match, and he did it!

Lori almost ran the table, hitting all six cans.  unfortunately one stubborn can only slid across the table, and refused to fall!

The final match-up of the night featured a rematch between Ray and Lori, with Ray sitting on the perch in the undefeated bracket.  in front of a bar full of onlookers, Ray prevailed!! in doing so, he won a coveted Immunity Card!!

while I won’t be in the habit of announcing what the Immunity Challenges will be ahead of time, this week I’m deciding to let the cat out of the bag.  What will we be doing Saturday Night at 9pm? 

Can you say “Quarters Contest” anyone?
